THIS IS A HORRIBLE INTRODUCTION. PLEASE WRITE A NEW ONE, VANA MY DEAREST, FOR I AM INADEQUATE.
Welcome to the Kwaidan region, where heroes and villains are born and broken. Trainers don’t just stand on the sidelines barking orders; they thrust themselves into the line of fire and taste the real grit of fighting. In this superstitious world full of bizarre creatures, impossible horrors and unbreakable courage, humans and Pokémon struggle to find, or create, themselves.
Caterwaul is a written based Pokémon forum that doesn’t hold much value in stats or levels. To excel in battle you must use creativity, flexibility and logic. But, above all else, you must tear yourself away from video game mode and consider your characters more than just pixel sprites on a gameboy screen. No faceclaims, no word count. You’re also welcomed to make a preset team.

"Um... well, okay," she said, watching him scoot out of the seat and high-tail it towards the door. "See you later!"
That was probably a lie. There wouldn't be a see you later. Another person going through a revolving door; in and out, goodbye. She sighed, scooting down further in the booth until her knees bumped the under table.
Soda eyed the duo until they were at the door and then turned to regard his trainer. He passed her a knowing look. Really? it said. Not even a hinting at a challenge? He crossed his arms on the table and drummed his fingers, eyes closing. Pretty lame.
Shiloh huffed, pushed him, and stood up. Leaning over the back of the booth, she called out to the rapidly escaping Adder.
"Hey! Before you leave, want to have a first battle?"

Just a hot meal. [gearr] « Result #2 on May 2, 2013, 2:57pm »
"Dodge, dodge!" Adder sprinted over the slate-colored rocks of the Rue mountains. Next to him, a flash of creamy scales skidded to a stop and ended in a tumble. Where he and his cubone had just been standing, a cascade of rocks smashed into pieces, leaving a dusty heap of destruction. "Holy shit, we almost got caught in that." The pair crouched next to one another, panting. Adder looked over at Garnet and nodded. "Don't let it scare you. Use mud slap!"
The cubone leapt into action and wove up through the debris. Her trainer scrambled up the fallen rocks in pursuit of the geodude that they sparred with. Seeing it over the crown of the last boulder, he jumped up to distract it, and suddenly found himself blocking fierce blows from the rock-type. Before the opponent caused more than a couple bruises, Garnet appeared from behind and delivered a whiplash of wet mud so fierce that it cracked the geodude's head, eroding away the hard rock.
The pokemon fell to the ground with a crash. Adder breathed deeply and then coughed out a laugh. "Nice work." He bent down to grab his knees as he caught his breath. "You're getting so much better, Gar."
The cubone, too, was panting, and she skirted around the geodude to latch onto Adder's leg. He stroked her scaly back and hoisted her into the crook of his arm. "Now we can finally get to the town. Jesus, I know I'm done camping out for a few days," he grumbled, and started walking down the gravelly slope to the pokemon center. He could just see it there in the distance. It wouldn't be long before he had a meal and a couch, and that's about all he wanted after a battle like that.

Name:: Aaron Halloway Gender:: Male Age:: 20
Hair Colour:: Brown Hair Style:: Shaggy Eye Colour:: Blue Skin tone:: Pale Piercings:: Three in the helix of each ear like so Build:: Lanky. Looks more like a scholar than anything and would probably die a death if he had to run any great distance.
Personality:: He's genuinely just a rude dick. As in this describes him to a T and if you meet him he's near certain to be a twat. He comes from a family of old money, which will likely lead to most considering him to be spoilt and little more. That's less than half of the story, really. He was more of an accidental child than one that was wanted, though anything short of having him would have been bad form. As such he tended to be palmed off on the help, lacking the needed parental role models and perhaps more essentially love. Due to this he's come to be strictly independent, resenting anything he deems as pity or coddling.
He tends to avoid relationships in general (romantic and friendship) and has issues getting close to people. Tends to be quietly reflective, however.
A character can be anything they wish to be, from a Pokémon Trainer to a Coordinator to a scientist! Plant berries, harvest and sell them for profits! Breed your Pokémon for a chance at getting a mix of the parent Pokémon! All of this and more can be found only at DisplacedEarth. The roleplay is linear, but your character is free to travel wherever they wish whenever they like! No hassle of searching for the correct HMs or unusual roadblocks, just take the train or have someone else Fly you to your desired location! Every Pokémon can be found somewhere; do you have what it takes to capture every single one of them?

She was beginning to feel hopeless, like maybe she should just call Garrett...but he hated being contacted, especially by a newbie, the "little rattata" as he called her. Despite the warmth of her hoodie and the humid breathing of the zubat against her ribs, she felt a chill down her spine. Nervousness. She was going to have to call Garrett, going to have to deal with his soft growling voice and too-sweet words that were more unnerving than any outright threat.
But the chill down her spine, it wasn't from nervousness. She felt a strange presence...and a stirring in her jacket. She spun around and - "stoOOP!!!" She was face to face with a mischeviously grinning shadow, but before she had a chance to realize that it was pokemon rather than person before her, her fist swung straight for the curious face.
And passed right through it. Her arm felt cold as it intersected with the ethereal creature.
She wanted to scream, but she didn't (she was still more afraid of the police than ghosts), but by this time, a naughty zubat had scratched his way up out of the hoodie. Hooked on Addie's shirt, the little bat let out a scream of high-pitched fury at being awoken in the middle of the day.
Addie and Amity might not have understoo the finer points of what Vesper had said, but to Jas, it was clearly "FUCK YOU."
Addie was about thirty seconds away from using her chuck taylor's for their intended purpose, getting the hell out of dodge. The small item was still in her pocket and Vesper hadn't started flying yet....she could hold on to both and make it out of it her fine.

"OOF!"
Amity's books tumbled onto the dirty concrete as the jostle of the crowd thrust her small body forwards through the library door, propelling her into the throng of commuters and sending her sprawling on the sidewalk. Gritting her teeth, she glared at their backs as they meshed into the rest of the crowd and disappeared between a pair of men in darkened suits.
Ugh, thanks a lot guys! No, no. Really! No I'm fine, thanks!
Jasper hovered at eye level, carefully inspecting her body for damage before floating over to the scattered texts and propping one up for her to see. The Effect of Gravity on Defensive Technique.
"Oh, shut up Jas!"
With a sigh the girl began to gather her books. Reaching first for her trusty dayplanner, she then collected a number of thick volumes that she had been studying lately. two tomes on battle technique, a list of pokemon and their preferred foods, and the latest copy of her favorite fantasy romance novel, Love Lost.
"OOF!" Down she goes again, glasses slipping off this time and slamming the ground with an audible clink. Retrieving them quickly, Amity backstepped into the library's adjoining alleyway. This was no use! She was just going to have to wait.
Taking out her planner, she ran a pale finger down to the time. She should be home by now, making dinner. Whatever. With a halfhearted sigh she scribbled "WAITING IN ALLEY" on the timeslot and sat down on the cool concrete floor.
When the picture appeared in her head she started a bit, and then her eyes grew wide. A hunched pale girl, white blonde hair falling like straw to her shoulders, the ghostly figure of Jas trailing curiously behind her.
Appearance: Small, thin. A metaphorical beanpole with an unfortunate lack of boob and an ocular prescription that leaves her nose straddled with a thick-rimmed pair of "hipster glasses". Her hair is long and dark brown, usually pulled back in a ponytail. It's wavy and she has bangs. Her face is angular and kind of square. Pretty pale, green eyes. She's a clumsy oaf.
Personality: Shy, bookish, and generally adorkable, though distant and stubborn. She has trouble socializing with people and speaking her mind. A lot of the time the thoughts just get stuck on her tongue and she gets frustrated. A workaholic, very strict with her daily schedule (She carries a day planner and follows it carefully).
Immune to flirting.
History: She was born and raised normally, graduated school, and now has traveled to the city for further education.

Our story takes place on the tiny island region of Alleos - the Government here has given up, and while there are still trainers and gyms, the job has become extremely dangerous.The Pokemon in this world have evolved to take on humanesque forms at will, as well as a taste for the flesh of human and Pokemon alike.
Recently, the Belltower Company have made themselves forefront on anti-Pokemon activity, developing technologies that permit humans to defend themselves. Humans, however, are not the only ones banding together - recently a Legion of legendary Pokemon has made it clear that they mean to assert their superiority over the human races, and have announced plans to engineer a Pokeball that would work on people.
Join us and play as a human, a Pokemon, or even a scientifically engineered crossbreed of the two! Use spirit slots to give your character an extra edge on the competition, and earn upgrades through participation. Alleos - the world - needs a champion to help end the fighting one way or another; do you think you've got what it takes?
